Maybe But getting older and not faster isnt ideal

Created by: Dink32788
Team: 2023-24 Pittsburgh Penguins
Initial Creation Date: Jun. 28, 2023
Published: Jun. 28, 2023
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Wheeler after he gets bought out. Made the trade and retention to get the # down to about what he’ll sign.

Not sure about the wheeler and Oreilly combo, because neither are fast or young obviously. This is about what I expect from Dubas. Everyone keeps expecting all these major moves, but I don’t see it happening. Hopefully he finds a way to clear carter, because my 2.2 mill in cap space would look a lot better if it was 5.5 and add a barbashev, Tarasenko, or other impact player.

Chicago needs more than a 3rd to take Granlund.

I dont see why VGK would move Thompson, but I am all over that.

Some kidn of Granlund for Wheeler swap with some retention on both sides makes sense.

Supposedly he said he’d be open to being moved because of hill resigning. Not sure how factual that report is, or if they would. But if they do… I think that deal would get you close

Figured that as well. Toss in another pick or prospect. I think retaining some helps. 2 years @ 4 mill isn’t too bad for a 3rd line center. Still can’t believe hextall GAVE up a 2nd for him like 3 months ago and now he’ll cost the value of a 2nd to get rid of him.
